Proposed Selwyn District Plan – Opportunity for submissions seeking rezoning (prior to 11
December)
The Proposed Selwyn District Plan (Proposed Plan) was notified on 5 October. It sets out the environmental outcomes and rules for development within the District for the next 10-15 years.
The Proposed Plan does not zone any additional land for urban development, notwithstanding the new National Policy Statement - Urban Development which requires Councils to be responsive to development proposals which supply significant additional development capacity (further explained below). The Council has indicated it will rely on submitters to put forward proposals for urban re-zoning i.e. a developer lead approach.
